The Houston Wiki addresses unmet needs of the Houston community. The Houston Wiki is not intended to compete with Wikipedia or other user-driven formats for information about the well-known aspects of Houston. If you want to read about the Astros, see
Wikipedia. Restaurant reviews? See
Yelp. We complement sites such as these.
We want to build a more informed citizenry and a closer community. In such a large city, it's easy to be overwhelmed by a sense of community-obscuring anonymity. Houston is not just a place to work - it's our home.
What are these unmet needs? Here are a few. Please add to this list!
-
Local businesses, politics, people, art, and cultural landscape
-
Neighborhood, student (all levels), ethnic, common interest, religious/spiritual, volunteer and civic organizations
-
Community projects, public spaces, venues for dates
-
Detailed information on housing, schools, libraries, etc.
-
Local research & development
